10 Year Old Daughter With celiac disease Needs Email Friend

Hi,

I'm new and apparently i posted wrong or something as I have not seen my previous post in this section! I can only find my post by clicking on KimG to read my one and only posting!

Please help....my 10 year old daughter needs some email friends around her own age that have celiac disease or are on a gluten-free diet. We are new to this whole thing and mostly it would be helpful for her to know other kids are out there that are having the same problems as she is. I can't even imagine how different things will be for her this year as school starts. Please read my original post (if you can find it!). I posted it today and only about an hour ago. I hope that someone with Celiac kids can help me......i did get one two replies earlier, but then my posting disappeared!

Thanks!

Kim

Hi,

I have a 9 1/2 year old daugter that will be diagnosed 2 years in the fall as well as myself shortly before. She has adapted very well and has met several other friends through camps and a gluten free vacation we did. I know she would like to communicate with your daughter. She understands fully what it all means and has accepted and adjusted very well. My e-mail is elysealec@aol.com and if you contact me, I will give you her e-mail address. By the way, where are you located? We are in Kure Beach, NC. Good luck.

kim----i have an 11 yr old daughter with celiac. my girls have been gluten free since the start of the new year. molly (the 10 yr old) has handled the diagnosis very well and is the only one of my 3 girls to get her blood tests back to normal so far. i'm sure she would love to e-mail your daughter.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
